for firefox and js, I always used http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Greasemonkey

for custom css... I clearly remember that old firefox version could let me set custom css, no plugin needed...

Most vanilla browsers lets you add your own user style into cascade. In Firefox it is userContent.css and userChrome.css [1] (loaded at startup), in Google Chrome custom.css [2](this file is 'live'). IE [3] and Opera [4] have something like this as well.
